Searching for Tomorrow


Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

~ Robert Frost

  6. Hey Cheryl,
    Lovely picture!  That poem is one I memorized in 11th grade and can still recite.  Frost is my favorite poet.
    On Tuesday I'm handing out awards, and of course you're on the list.  Don't remember how you feel about them, but even if they bug the crap out of you, at least you have a link from me to you.
    I hope you're enjoying your weekend.

  16. And so often, the decisions we make are based on the slenderest of reasoning, yet have enormous impact on the journey of our lives. Frost, being an independent thinker, took the path less travelled; as, I suspect, do you :)
